Mom's Strawberry Dream Cake

(This recipe came from my grandmother's sister-in-law, many years ago. My mother use to always make this for me when ever I requested it!)

1 package white cake mix
1- 3 oz. package strawberry jello mix
1/2 box frozen strawberries
4 eggs
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup oil

Blend box of cake mix, box of jello mix, eggs, and water with mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add strawberries, including syrup. Beat 1 minute. Add the oil and beat for 1 more minute. Bake in 2 round cake pans or a 9 x 13 pan, at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes. Cool completely.

Frosting:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 box strawberries
1 box confectioners sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Mix all together. Frost cake and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Or, if you like a little bit less rich taste, I found this great Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting you could use on this same cake.

1- 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons butter, softened
2 tablespoons strawberries, chopped
1 box confectioners sugar
Mix with electric mixer. Frost cake and refrigerate.
